In this update:
Lake Washington Boulevard in Montlake remains closed in both directions between Montlake Boulevard and East Foster Island Road until 10 p.m. Friday, May 19. During this closure, we are replacing the roadway with concrete paving and adding planting areas and a center median. The westbound SR 520 off-ramp to Lake Washington Boulevard is also closed these days.
 We appreciate your patience as crews work to improve this key Montlake street. A lot more work lies ahead this summer. Read our recent blog to learn more about all the construction, roadway closures and completed milestones you'll see along SR 520 in coming months.
Over the weekend of May 19-21, the I-5 express lanes and northbound Interstate 5 near the State Route 520 interchange will close so crews can place steel bridge girders for a new flyover ramp over the freeway.
The closures extend from 10 p.m. Friday, May 19 to 10 a.m. Sunday, May 21. Signed detours with uniformed police officers will guide traffic. The work will require drivers on northbound I-5 to use SR 520 and Montlake Boulevard to turn around and rejoin northbound I-5 just past the work zone.
Please note: People who continue past the Montlake Boulevard exit on eastbound SR 520 will need to pay the SR 520 bridge toll. Plan ahead and prepare for delays. This work is part of the SR 520/I-5 Express Lanes Connection Project.
There’s still time to register for our virtual office hours set for tomorrow, May 12, as we approach a major milestone for the SR 520/I-5 Express Lanes Connection Project.
During the weekend closure from May 19-21, crews will set steel bridge girders for a new flyover ramp. Come ask questions to the project team and learn about what we’ve accomplished and what’s to come.
There will be two one-hour sessions. Use the registration links below to sign up. We look forward to seeing you!
We’re holding our next monthly online Montlake Project meeting on Wednesday, May 17. Join us to learn about upcoming construction activity and planned street and highway closures as we build a new eastbound bridge over Union Bay, the Montlake lid, a bicycle and pedestrian bridge over SR 520, and HOV direct-access ramps to the Montlake lid. Register below to attend and take part in a Q&A.
